EP 87: Droughts, Planting Reports, & Favorite Board Games

Where’s the rain, and how will the lack of it impact the upcoming planting report? Returning fan favorite, Aaron Bledsoe, joins hosts Ryan Priest and Sal Sama for this episode of The High Ground, powered by Premier Companies to answer that question. As many of you know, Aaron is the Grain Merchandiser for Premier Companies, so he’s got a ton of insights into the market. What you may not know is that he is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to board games as well.

Aaron, Sal, and Ryan dig into a variety of topics including weather markets, upcoming WASDE reports, and the upcoming planting report. You’ll hear about how the nitrogen market has been impacted by recent demands and how the dry weather may impact the market in the future. He’ll also share insight into the reasons for the recent rally in prices, signs of corn stress, the increase in beans over the last two weeks, and recommendations to growers in the midwest as we move into July. Even though the weather is throwing a wrench into the plans of many, “Find a number you love and figure out a way to set a target for it!”
